Wading throuth the Water

So... I'm not a doctor, but I've seen some on tv.  So then...



I'm wondering about this whole water thing. Of course we should drink 64oz of water a day. If you don't know that, you live under a rock or something. So it occurs to me, that if you find it difficult to adhere to this rule, when you finally start to insert some discipline, exercise, diet, whatever - then obviously you haven't been doing it, for quite some time, if ever! Perhaps you have been walking around dehydrated for years! Ugggghhhh!  Why is this sooo bad??

Water weighs alot.
If I used to be dehydrated and now I am drinking a lot...even though, yes, the water does aid in weight loss and general good health... I am giving my body more water, some of which it will keep, because I was never walking around with enough in there in the first place!!!

Translation?
It seems to me, I will gain a little, before I lose. As I am losing fat and other ugly stuff, I am gaining water. The water will balance out and the weight will continue to decline, so it's a temporary bump, but geeeez.... a bump just the same!!!  Oh well. I feel great.  :)
